Title: Battey crow call
Post by: PALongspur on December 30, 2017, 07:02:44 AM
Does anyone know of any for sale anywhere?

Anyone on Mike's "list" heard from him lately?

I called Mike when they first came out and ordered one.  When it arrived I couldn't wait to give it a run, and when I did I immediately picked up the phone and ordered two more.  Mike asked why I needed 3 crow calls ?  I said I've been around and know that if I don't order them now I might miss my chance later.  Boy am I glad I did! I have each one tuned to different sounds.  But fear not as a call of this quality was prob bought out by a bigger company and you'll see it on the market very soon. And no I will not sell one of mine! HAAAAHH!

Good to hear. I'm on his "list" so hopefully that means I'll be getting a phone call soon.

Ok. When I say I have mine a friend got it for me. The limited I hear is sold out already.
It was Osage and my bud got me one ???? And I just got another to go with it.
Guess he sold a couple hundred in no time. Sounds like Will Primos is involved.
I'm going to look now

I'm trying to get his contact now. My buddy is using his contact info as a leverage against me for different calls to trade. I mainly trade calls.  I have a lot   I will post when I find out.

I musta fell off his list, I contacted him back last June bout one. I seen on Facebook couple days ago he had a limited run of 40 Osage and didn't specify number of Cherry calls. I sent him funds for a Osage but haven't heard back as far as when it'll ship. I think they sold very fast.
Title: Re: Battey crow call
Post by: M8mgobl on February 01, 2018, 12:35:45 PM
I have his contact info. Pm me if you want it.
Yes he made 40 limited out of Osage. Still has some left. 
The regular ones are made out of cherry.
75 for the limited and 40 on the cherry.

Ok. I thought yesterday I posted pm me for his info. Now I don't see it
He still had some of the 40 limited Osage ones left yesterday. The rest were made out of cherry.
The 5 limited sets. One Osage one cherry numbered are sold out. Gee that's what I was
Told yesterday. But it was from him so I'm sure it's true. As for guys on a list he is having a hard time
Finding the contact info.  Just call him.

Anybody know when these might ship? I sent payment 10 or 11 days ago but haven't received anything. He hasnt responded on FB message I can see he's read it tho. When I sent payment the way he talked he had these available and I sent 75.00 for a signed and numbered Osage crow call.

I either fell off the list too or he ran out before he got to my name.

Guess I'll try calling him later today to find out for sure.

Appreciated,

No sir. Ive pretty much given up. A few phone calls, voice mails, emails. Nothin. Apparently he is located within 30 min ofe. Id drive there today and get 3 of em. He is either in a bad spot, or just flat out dont want to sell crow calls any more.

Mike Battey sounds like he is as scarce as hen's teeth nowadays.
Title: Significant Update
Post by: Brwndg on February 16, 2023, 06:49:37 PM
Found a page on FaceBook administrated by Mike Battey, WildTalker-Talk on the Wild Side
On that site I located a post by Mike from October saying he was back producing his crow calls.
If interested you'll need to get on his list.

I've got a plastic one. It's the most realistic crow call I have ever used. I am supposed to be in his list for an Osage model. We will see if that ever happens.
